Beschreibung
Calendars are a dance between the earth and the sky, a unique representation of science, culture, art, and politics. Spanning more than five millennia and many continents, Calendar. explores our attempts to measure and control time through 52 extraordinary calendar forms - from Neolithic stone circles and Viking primstavs to astrolabes, volvelles, almanacs, and quadrants and from religious artefacts to revolutionary propaganda. A beautiful visual language of our human life in days, weeks, months, and years.
